Oromay (2025)
Baalu Girma
"Oromay is a startling, intimate and gripping saga of war-time Ethiopia turned topsy-turvy. Its cast of quirky characters, as quick to spout revolutionary rhetoric as to deploy cutthroat maneuvers, imbues the narrative with tension, humor and dramatic heft. This fierce but also tender-hearted story unveils a revolution being hollowed out by the hypocrisies, cheap sloganeering and moral fudginess of its ostensible stewards. In his brave dissection of rampaging power and evasive language, Girma recalls George Orwell and Aldous Huxley."
